There can be no doubt that #Trump intends to use our military against us. Watch the whole damn thing! It's eerily like listening to his J6 speech, only its tuned to his military leader audience, and includes bribes and threats

No Kings

As the president escalates his authoritarian power grab, the NO KINGS non-violent movement continues to rise stronger. We are united once again to remind the world: America has No Kings and the power ...

Omg, everything you do Zohran is spot on. Love it.

I love my country. What I hate is what #ConvictedFelonTrump and his acolytes are doing to it and how they are mistreating my fellow Americans while trampling the Constitution! Our #UnSupremeCourt is also complicit in this.

So I join #NoKings to show my dissent which is my right

Well since the dollar has dropped in value by 10% since Jan and since there is another 100% tariff coming soon I’d say considerably more than it would have been in Dec 24. What do you think?

Thank you Governor Pritzker for standing up to this fascist regime.

Stay strong Illinois and Chicago.

And remember the Blues Brothers.

Uh, I guess? The bday card was a forgery, yeah? So he’s innocent, right? Then just release the damn #EpsteinFiles cause he has nothing to fear, right?

Gandolf the Grey @gsnyder.bsky.social · 17h

So they stiff arm Americans - farmers, people on Medicaid, people who got health insurance thru ACA - to bail out Argentina and their wealthy hedge fund buddies? Is that about right? Perfect 👏👏👏

Gandolf the Grey @gsnyder.bsky.social · 21h

They draw from some old English case law to make the argument only persons born to people in the country lawfully get citizenship and it’s about having absolute loyalty to one and only one country (ie. No more dual citizenship?)

Well, this isn’t England, is it. So, no, your argument stinks

FYI, all law enforcement already treats Black Americans this way. Welcome!

Wow. Greg Bovino admits on camera that his agents can detain people if you look scared, change your demeanor, or grip a steering wheel too tight.

As his unmasked agents walk around with large guns to scare you, they may arrest you just for that — even if you're a U.S. citizen.

And ingraham’s vapid smile/smirk has always looked ridiculous to me. Does that make her an insurrectionist?

Hmmm, did he fail the loyalty test or the waistline test?

Chicago, IL.

ICE smashes into a random car, jumps out with automatic weapons drawn, abducts the victim after dragging her violently out of her car.

“Show me your papers please.”

That is a direct violation of the 4th amendment against unlawful search and seizure

This is not a border crossing.
There’s no law that any of us have to show our papers on the interior.

This is a blatant civil rights violation. How is anyone supposed to know whether this man is a real ICE agent or just pretending to be one?!

Wasn’t that Kevin Roberts who said that? Vought definitely was a key architect/writer of Project 2025 but I think we have Roberts to thank for that gem

Bless his little heart (and penis), he thinks he can shut down protests in over 2000+ locations and millions of participants.

I fart in the general direction of the #TrumpRegime

I signed up for and donate to Democracy Docket for this very reason. When I realized the MSM orgs were under-reporting or misleading about what’s going on, I dumped them.

Gandolf the Grey @gsnyder.bsky.social · 1d

Omg, WP, really? He literally declared WAR on US citizens. He bombed Iran. He bombed boats off the coast of Venezuela and we don’t know who was in the boats.

Even if he “solved” Gaza (skeptical!!) he is a instigator and violent man. No way he ever deserves an award. 🤮🤮🤮

Gandolf the Grey @gsnyder.bsky.social · 1d

Yeah, but up in the sky behind you are streaks of Marxist fire burning a scar in the fabric of this great nation. Since you are all lounging there and didn’t “call it in” you are complicit and will be jailed until we figure how to charge you. Good day sir!
